How To Wear Flannel Without Looking Sloppy

It’s time to break out our flannel shirts for maximum fall wear. But this year we’re retiring the leggings and button-down pair — okay, maybe not entirely — and amping up our beloved plaid shirt.


Instead of always feeling AND looking cozy, why not keep the comfy factor while looking a little more put-together?And you can really wear your flannel anywhere: to brunch, a cool concert and yes, even your 9-to-5 gig.


So, dig up a few flannels — or buy a new one, we won’t judge — and check out how versatile these shirts can actually be.


Say something and pair a flannel with a statement tee.

Tuck it in for a refined silhouette.

Break up a monochrome theme with the plaid pattern.
